--- The story begins like this. Above a dead planet in an orbit, a city sized space ship called the Othello, recently began having malfunctions. Almost as if it had a mind of its own, people began to die, part of the ship would seal off, killing all those inside of the sealed area as the oxygen slowly ran out. And soon, some of the droid and robotic components of the ship began to malfunction as well, and soon started to attack members of the ship, from citizens to soldiers, killing or harming members with little hesitation. To stop the killings, the ship was split, the 25% of the ship that had not malfunctioned severing as the only home for the survivors. Unfortunately, the small area now houses three times the amount of people it was built to support, and supplies would run low at the rate of consumption.
To reclaim the parts of the ship that was lost, several citizens, scientists, or soldiers offered themselves to help out. Unfortunately, this group was attacked soon after leaving, and only a small amount of the people where brought back. Placed within several glass containers, the group of survivors, in order to keep them alive, had their genes changed. But their bodies became slightly unstable, and in order to keep them together, special genes which would give them abilities where inserted into their bodies. When the group awoke, they would receive the names of different fairy tale or story characters, based off children books that the lead scientist told his daughter.
The stories of the Grimm Fairy Tales, Mother Goose, Alice in Wonderland, and Wizard of Oz are where the names came from. These individuals are the last hope for the dying ship Othello, for they must stop the ships computers and regain control, for the sake of all in the ship. ---
So yeah... my idea... Long intro thingy... but yeah... Charrie Card ^^y
Name: Code Name: Abilities (2 max): Age: Gender: Brief Personality: Appearance: Weapon (If Any):
Name: Joseph Lake Code Name: Scarecrow Abilities (2 max): Stitch- Almost any wound inflicted upon his body can easily be repaired a system of nano-machines that stitch up the wound. & Dash- For brief moments, he can move the fastest that the eye can follow, leaving behind him very brief images of himself. Age: 23 Gender: Male Brief Personality: A fun-loving, if not forgetful man. He is friendly, as well as overly protective. Appearance: His clothes usually consist of a brown tank-top and a pair of baggy, tan pants of a soldier. He has shoulder long, fresh wheat colored hair and his iris' have become black slits. His right wrist, left elbow, right shoulder, waist, right knee, neck, and his chest (diagonally) have been stitched back together, giving him an almost patchwork appearance. His skin has taken on light tan coloration, and he gives off no body heat nor does he bleed. Weapon (If Any): 50 small, 2 inch knives he has along his pants for easy access.
------------------------------------------------------------
"Wake them up." The Head scientist commanded. Buttons where pressed, lights flashed, and steam rose from several glass chambers. One of the chambers opened up, and a shoulder hair length youth sat up, rubbing the back of his head. "Ugh... why is it so cold in here... and why am I so stiff?" He questioned, rubbing the back of his neck. His hand stopped for a moment, and slowly, his fingers trailing over the stitches slowly.
"What the hell happened to me?" He asked, looking around. "Stay calm Joseph... your mission team was attacked, and most killed. We saved as many possible, and you... you where revived through our nano-technology..." The Scientist said, unsure how to continue.
"Revived... I-I died?" Joseph asked, bewildered. "Yes... but your new body is stronger, it won't bleed, and you can take most damage and still live." He was told. Looking forward, Joseph pushed himself out of the glass case and stumbled out. "Your code name is Scarecrow, A protector and Guardian."
"The others should be waking up soon."

OOC: Hope this fits, i have always wanted to play a Mega-Man T_T
Name: Gerard "Jerry" Paulson Code Name: Tin Man Abilities (2 max): Metal Man- His skin is as hard as steel, with a slight silver sheen. Hard to penetrate, but underneath hes still human. Reshape- He has limited control over his bodys shape. For example, his joints have full range of motion, his arms can reshape into his weapons (Mentioned below), Age: 24 Gender:Male Brief Personality: Cold and serious to a fault, theres actualy a nice guy hidden in there.... somewhere.... Appearance: 6'4", well muscled but not body builder ripped. Skin now has a silver tint, but its still recognizably human. A soldier turned scientist, he wears camo pants and a lab coat. Weapon (If Any): 2 Blasters, in his arms. They are formed when his hands melt back into his arms, revealing the blaster barrels. Think Terminator meets Star Wars. ------------------------------------------------------------- "What the hell is this" Jerry says, sitting up, "i feel like i been hit by a ton of bricks...." He reaches up to rub his head, but gasps when he sees his arm, now with a light silver sheen. "What happened to me!!" He bellows, raising from the chamber.
"Gerard, calm yourself," one of the scientists said, "Your home, and your alive, thats all that matters."
"What do you mean, 'All that matters'?! Did you see my skin? What have you done?!?!"
"It was necissary to keep you alive, we have had to make some changes to your genetic code. Your skin is now as hard as steel, and you have.... how shall i say... more control over your body now. For example, Think hard about Blasters."
Puzzled at first, then surprised, as his hands reshaped themselves into a pair of blaster barrels. "What in gods name...."
"Thats not all you can do, but i dont have time to go over it all, i have other to look after." The scientist turns and walks away, as Jerry idlly reshapes his hands over and over agian.
Finaly looking around the room, he spots Joseph. "You too, huh?"

"What the hell!?!?" Joseph yells, watching Jerry. "How come he gets the steel skin and gun arms?" He asked. "I mean... I might as well be made with straw, but him..."
"Stop complaining... you can basiclly regenerate, and you have amazing speed." One of the Scientists said, passing by.
"That's easy for you to say... you didn't have your HEAD RIPPED OFF recently." Joseph said, clearly upset.
"Or your arm, leg, chest... any of your body torn up... why did I get the worse of it..." He added, giving a dejective sigh.
"Yeah... me too..." He finally answered.
"I mean... come on... I'm scarecrow... a freaken straw man..." He added, pulling at one of the stitches in his wrist, pulling it out only to have it repair itself.

OOC: FUN!!! I <3 this idea. Name: Sonya Alexandrov Code Name: Cheshire Abilities (2 max): Fade- she has the ability to become physically invisible & Cat Eyes- she has the ability to see very well in darkness Age: 25 Gender: female Brief Personality: A bit of a rapscallion, she has a cunning streak. She's usually fairly laid back, though when agitated she gets quite irritable. Still, when she's pleased with you she will show it. Appearance: I felt like making an avi for her instead.... makes it easier (her hair is dyed) Weapon (If Any): NONE IC: Upon waking, Sonya felt an intense need to stretch. Why was she so sore? What had happened? Blinking her eyes open she was faced with bright light all around her. She began to squint but almost instantly her eyes adjusted. Yawning tremendously she sat up and realized that she was in fact in some sort of laboratory. "Hey doc..... what's going on?" she asked one of the scientists. She stretched her arms and legs, and yet didn't feel as though she'd stretched all her limbs. "What the....." She looked behind her to see that somehow she had acquired a... tail! She shrieked in surprise, trying to get up in vain. "Ms. Alexandrov, please, don't try to get up." the scientist urged, putting a hand firmly on her shoulder. "You'll notice some interesting changes that your body underwent while you were unconscious." "Interesting changes? " Her new tail bristled angrily. "INTERESTING CHANGES!!?" "Please... calm down. What we did was necessary for your survival. You'll also come to see that you've been given extreme advantages over the average human. Your eyes are so good that you'll be able to see in nearly complete darkness, and you should actually have the ability to camouflage your presence- that is to say you'll be able to become invisible." "I... what?" She lamely looked around at the others in the room. "So... then they're... different too? They look..." "Well, yes, in a manner of speaking. You're each fundamentally different, though for the same reason." "Right...." Sonya was in a daze, still in shock. OOC: Lame first post >.<

Name: Belle Dupont Code Name: Beast Abilities (2 max): Mammal - Turns from a lion-human hybrid into a girl every 12 hours (and vice-versa) Open - Can open a container, locked or not, to reveal whatever she wants (can't use one container twice.) Age: 26 Gender: Female Brief Personality: Cheerful in general. Fierce temper. Appearance: During 'day' (odd numbered twelve-hour periods) she has slightly furry skin, shaggy and yellow. Her hands and feet are turned to paws of a sort, with claws. Her hair turns into a sort of mane surrounding her face. Her eyes are gold. During 'night' (even numbered twelve-hour periods) she has long blonde hair and the same eyes, with tan skin. Thin, 5'7". Weapon (If Any): Claws as a hybrid - long-bladed knife on a belt as a human. Other: She is French, and has an accent. Very sensitive to sunlight, even a little hurts her eyes and burns her skin in her hybrid form.
-----------------------------------------------
Belle groaned as she awoke. She felt odd, for some reason. Where was she, anyway? She vaguely remembered going out on a mission to do something, but then... what?
Her head throbbing, the young woman reached up a hand to her head to put it to her skull, but stopped when she saw what was attached to her arm. "The hell...?" She muttered, not fully registering the fact that her hand had become gold and furry and not a hand at all.
"Please stay calm, Mademoiselle Dupont." Said a man in a lab coat, standing in front of her. She blinked, not understanding, so he continued. "You were involved in an accident. Most of your comrades were killed by an outside force. Those of you left have... changed." He paused. "You're a hybrid."
Belle gawked at him for a moment, not understanding quite what he meant. "You mean... I'm not... I'm a..." She didn't quite know how to complete her sentence, so he did for her.
"A lion. Somewhat."

Hearing two new voices, Joseph looked over seeing two new people, women and he gave out a soft sigh.
At least two girls survived, out of the entire group at least two survived. But was that a good thing, being brought back as experiments for the twisted scientists.
Sitting on the ground, Joseph sighed once more, this one more of an annoyed sigh. "I can't believe it... not even 50 feet away from the doorway, and I die..."
Placing his head on his hand, Joseph looked around. "I die... and the rest of them are severiously injured, enough that these scientists get to put their grubby little hands to change them forever."
"Hey!" "Watch your mouth" "We could of let you stay dead." Several voices came, and Joseph just stuck his tongue out.

Ooc: Dude, this sounds awesome.
Ic: Name: Lyze Code Name: Robin redbreast Abilities (2 max): Evasion( He avoids danger and the like by becoming translucent, which means things pass through him.) Courage( he gets short burst of adrenaline that let him move faster and jump higher, but only if he is the one that has to be brave. ) Age: 24 Gender: male Brief Personality: Lyze is a mechanic, not a fighter. He isn’t cowardly, his talent just lies in fixing machinery not breaking it. He’s easy to get along with and like to help out the only problem is all he can do is fix stuff. Appearance: He has a thin quick appearance. His short blondish hair has bleached to an almost white color and his once blue eyes are drained of pigment as well leaving an odd reddish tint to them. His skin is also a pale color making him look albino but not as frail. Weapon (If Any): his favorite wrench
Little Robin Redbreast sat upon a tree Up went a*****cat down went he Down came the*****cat and away Robin ran Says little Robin Redbreast “Catch me if you can.”
Lyze was still in a daze from his death experience. He stood up from the floor and took several steps forward to try and get his wits back. His head throbbed painfully making him stumble. “Sit down. Sit down!” someone shouted at him. He did what he was told and sat down on the floor squinting upward to try and see who he was looking at. “I thought good people were suppose to be greeted by beautiful angels when they went to heaven.” Lyze said grumpily. “Your not it heaven, your back on the space ship. Now hold still, you weren’t suppose to come out of your tube tell later.” “What tube?” Lyze asked running his hand along the back of his neck. “The one you just walked through.” It took a minute for it to register that what the scientist has said didn’t make sense. “What, what do you mean?” Lyze asked “Hold on, I’ll answer your questions in a sec.”

Looking over at Joseph, Jerry nearly growls "You think i wanted any of this? You think this is something i enjoy?"
Grabbing a passing scientist by the coller, Jerry shoves his face right into the other mans, "Fix me. Now!"
"Im sorry, your as fixed as we could make you..." The scientist blubbered, scared.
"Thats not an answer i wanted to hear!" Jerry nearly roars, and jumps out of the pod. However, upon landing, his knees buckle BACKWARDS, tossing him to the floor. Putting his hands out to stop his fall, his elbows do the same, twisting back into impossible positions. "What the....?"
"Most of your skeletal structue was liquified... we had to replace over 90% of your bone mass. In the intrest of furthering science, we made a few modifications. You will find that you can control how far your joints move with a little concentration."
"So, you mean i have to spend the rest of my life thinking about each time my knee bends?! What kind of life is that?"
"Hopefully, it will become second nature for you."
"Hopefully.... wonderful...." Looking back over at Joseph, he says, "Im with you on this. What right did they have to destroy our lives all over agian?"

OOC: Nues - the chain... T^T
IC:
Kathy, the last one to rise, blinked sleepily as she regained awareness. As her broad green eyes opened all the way, she tried to make some sense of where she was, and what had happened. As her last memory came back to her - the door, whirring metal, cries of alarm... she jolted upright with a sharp breath.
"Miss Osborne!" came a shout, and she looked up to see a few scientists come rushing to her side; as they checked for her pulse and peered at the back of her throat, one said, "Finally, you're awake. We'd begun to worry."
She found herself speechless, looking frightfully from one face to the next, and at the room around her. As they finished examining her, the scientists backed away, and she could see there were others whom she recognized from the mission to reclaim the ship, looking similarly bewildered - each of them somehow strange in appearance. One girl sported a pink-and-purple striped tail, another looked pale as a ghost, another was an odd silver hue, his limbs bent at horrific angles. ... Does that mean I...?
Fearing the worst, she lifted her hand to her face, scrutinizing it under the fluorescent light. Though it wasn't coated with fur, nor was it particularly off-color, she noticed her veins, barely visible beneath the skin of her wrist, appeared slightly... green? "I..." she managed croakily. "What's..."
One of the scientists stepped forward. "Miss Osborne, the modifications we've made to you are as follows: your blood has been infused with chlorophyll, and you therefore can produce plant matter. Additionally, you should have the ability to replicate yourself - your consciousness will remain in your actual body, while you remotely control the actions of your 'copies', so to speak."
Relatively stunned, Kathy lowered her arm to her side, attempting in vain to process this news.
